1.) After a rough season, do you think Yukon will bounce back next year? The simple answer to that question is Yes, I really believe in what @BarzalGoat is doing with our team, and with the draft prospects we have coming, I think we'll be in an amazing place next year! One really good thing is, I'll still be starting goalie next year as well!

 

 

2.) Who was the toughest player to face? Lordy, that's a tough one. Facing Alex Pepper and Cole Mertz was probably my toughest challenges, I did get a good hit in on 'em time or two this season, but other times they'd just "hand me my ass with the bill", if you know what I mean.

 

 

3.) Is there any player in the league that you want to knock out? Most of the folks I play with are pretty nice, so I can't think of one off hand. My team mates knock some folks around for me if I need 'em too! Haha!

 

 

4.) Which parts of your game need the most work? Well, I know I need to work on my hand speed, and rebound control. I think in time, and practice, I'll have all of those things down pat!

 

 

5.) Do you have any unique pre-game rituals? I always eat Biscuits and Gravy from Dairy Queen before a big game. It's something that reminds me of my grandparents growing up, and anytime we'd go to a big event, for breakfast, we'd always eat biscuits and gravy. It's a comfort thing, and it gets me in the zone.

2. What kind of defenders you want playing in front of you?

3. Getting scored on with a deflection, is that the most annoying way to get scored on?

4. Do you enjoy the away games and tours?

5. Are you planning on getting a custom mask done once you make it into the big league?

That's a really good question. I think it's very easy, because it gives me a lot of time to develop and grow as a player, without the expectation to be an immediate contender. I'm thankful I've gotten to be here to help with the rebuild of Yukon, so that I can be on the front lines of what's to  come! Its' mighty exciting!!

 

2. What kind of defenders you want playing in front of you?

I want team-centric, cohesive guys. I want my guys to be able to back me up when that puck gets past our blue line, and I want them to defend our house! Drop the boys who disrespect our house, and leave it on the ice when it's time to go home.

 

3. Getting scored on with a deflection, is that the most annoying way to get scored on?

 

Good Lord YES!! That, and if I push the goal in with my skate or pads. Those two things just drive me batty!

 

4. Do you enjoy the away games and tours?

 

I do!! I enjoy going places, especially when we get to go to Vegas, cause I can visit family and especially now, that means so much more.

 

5. Are you planning on getting a custom mask done once you make it into the big league?

 

I'd sure like to! I just dont know what I want to put on it!!
